Chapter 5: Wind and Haze

  The wind was blowing gently, and he quickly and carefully looked at Feng Yulang's face, but that face was getting uglier and uglier.

  "I've never seen this poison before, where did that fool get it from?" Feng Lingyun's earlier impatience had dissipated, replaced by a chill of surprise. Although he was young, he was confident in his medical skills, and even if he wasn't the best in the world, there were only a few who could surpass him. Medicine and poison were two sides of the same coin, and there weren't many poisons in this world that he hadn't seen before.

  But he couldn't see through this poison...

  "This poison was made by her own hands, I and Lan sister saw her catch some ants, pour a few bottles of unknown powder into it, and then suddenly sprinkle it on our faces. We became like this." Bai Yuyue explained continuously, with a sobbing voice, having fear, but even more having the intention to chop Meng Fu Ying into pieces.

  Bai Yichen and Feng Lingyun exchanged a swift glance, their eyes filled with unspoken astonishment.

  "It must be an accident... " Feng Lingyun said with a hint of disdain, could that idiot really come up with such a poison? He wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death.

  It's definitely a blind cat hitting a dead mouse, but I'm afraid even that fool didn't know it would have such an effect.

  "No, that fool knew all along it would have this effect. She said it was a Pig Head Rapid Elixir, saying it would turn us into pig heads." Feng Yulang naturally understood what Feng Lingyun meant, being from a medical family background.

  Bai Yichen and Feng Lingyun locked eyes once again, this time it was no longer just a simple surprise.

  "That foolish... she's done this, and this time she's even gone so far as to harm Xiaoyu. She must be trying to force you to change your decision about the divorce." Feng Lingyun clenched her fist tightly and said fiercely, "I didn't think she'd become so ruthless."

  However, in his heart, he still didn't believe that fool could concoct poison.

  Bai Yichen's eyes narrowed slightly, and his cold expression made it impossible to discern much emotion, leaving one wondering what he was thinking.

  "Let's go to the Wang Fu right now, I want to see what tricks she can play, and we must get the antidote back for Han'er and Yu'er." Feng Lingyun roared again in anger, he wanted to see what that fool was capable of.

  Bai Yichen didn't answer, but he also didn't refuse.

  Although the letter of divorce was written in a moment of urgency, once it was written, even if he knew it was against the emperor's will, he would not change his decision.

  He just hated seeing her again, but he couldn't ignore Yu'er either.

  "Brother, I don't want to become like this. You must help me get the antidote." Bai Yuer cried out and begged when she saw that Bai Yuchen didn't say anything.

  She believed that as long as her brother went, that fool would definitely hand over the antidote obediently.

  "Two young masters are looking for Second Miss, I'll go and inform her right away." The steward's face lit up with a smile as soon as he saw Feng Lingyun and Bai Yichen, and he greeted them warmly.

  "No need, we came this time to find that fool... your family's Third Miss." Feng Lingyun still had a face full of anger, but since they were at the Wangfu after all, she quickly changed her address.

  "Looking for Third Miss? The two young masters are looking for Third...” The butler was stunned, with a hint of uncertainty, and his eyes turned to look at Bai Yichen on the side, even more puzzled. Young Master Bai usually couldn't avoid Third Miss quickly enough, so why would he suddenly come looking for her today?

  "It is, it's her." Feng Lingyun interrupted the butler's words with some impatience.

  "Oh, then please, both young masters." The steward didn't dare say another word and this time he didn't go to announce their arrival, but instead directly led them in.

  "My mistress is busy and not receiving guests, please return, two gentlemen." The maid Autumn Child blocked Feng Lingyun and Bai Yichen outside the pavilion, although a bit tense, but her tone was very firm.

  The young lady had given orders that no one was to be allowed in to disturb her, so she could not let anyone in. The present Miss was not the same as the former Miss.

  "Hmph, she's busy, what could this foolish woman be busy with, isn't she just waiting for Chen to come see her? Now that everyone is here, why is she pretending, get out of the way." Feng Lingyun didn't pay any attention to her and directly rushed in.

  "Little Miss, I couldn't stop them." Chūn'ér could only walk up to Mèng Fú Yǐng's face and say carefully.

  Meng Fu Ying half leaned on the exquisite and comfortable chair, one hand gently grasping the teacup, slowly savoring the tea, while the other hand lightly stroked the smooth fur of Xue Zhuo who was leaning against her.

  Her eyes were slightly lowered, intently gazing at the snowflakes lingering on her body, with a hint of an almost imperceptible smile playing on her lips.

  Bai Yichen was stuck, he had imagined several scenarios of meeting her on his way here, but never thought it would be so unexpected.

  His eyes fell on her face, although he had been engaged to her for a long time, and she had been chasing him day and night, but he had never taken a close look at her.

  But looking at it, it's also a silly face, an ugly appearance.

  It's still that dark and unremarkable face, still those narrowed eyes, but suddenly it doesn't feel ugly anymore.

  And her lips seemed to have a strange and enchanting smile, as if there was a kind of magic that could make people infatuated.

  Knowing it's a terrifying hell, I still can't help but sink in irresistibly.

  She sat there with a slightly lazy air, motionless and silent, yet seemed to emanate an intangible aura.

  Bai Yichen was shocked and suddenly felt something had shaken him to his core.

  What shocked him even more was that Snowball, a tribute from the Tibetan region, was a gift from the Emperor to Master Meng Yuntian. Snowball was extremely loyal to its master, but it only recognized one master, and normally, no one dared to get close to it. Meng Fuying was especially afraid of it, but at this moment...

  At this moment, he really doubted that there was something wrong with his eyes.

  Feng Lingyun was also stunned, or perhaps she was shocked by her aura.

  "Is the mistress of the Hou Wang Fu's courtyard a place where two unrelated men can trespass?" The red lips moved slightly, and the soft voice that couldn't be any softer spread gently.

  That gentle voice, however, stunned everyone present. That gentle voice had an irresistible majesty and a terrifying aura that made people tremble with fear.

  Even the green bamboo standing beside her was stunned for a moment.

  Upon hearing three unrelated words, Bai Yichen's eyes inexplicably flickered for a moment.
